Posting this here in case I need to find it 25 years from now... "Module" (Load File) acts as an extension to your main module for compilation purposes. So, it's just a tack-on to what you've already defined. For me, instead of CHAINing the Module, the Module contains only a SUB which...

Hi All. Thanks in advance for looking at this thread. Have a program (BBS Door Game, actually) that CHAINS off to another .BAS file if a certain condition is met (if the program is run on the first of the month). This was required due to memory limitations on BC.EXE at compile time. The...

Tim.. Trust me that your expertise had not fallen on deaf ears. Unfortunately, it was not my choice to move forward with this solution; it was only my job to (attempt to) implement it. Had the final decision on this been mine, we would have not even wasted our time with this. I was only...

Hey all. I've have some updates and latest news on this project; just too burnt out from being on the phone with AT&T all afternoon discussing issues. I'll post back more tomorrow. To make a long story short...if it ain't broke...don't fix it. We're 99.9999999% sure we're pulling the...

This is what I love most about our implementation. I received an email from our "Service and Delivery" guy for our satellite office. He describes the PRI handoff from the cisco router: "It is NI2, B8ZS line code, ESF framing." After telling these people time and time again that we need 5ESS...

This is AT&T/SBC/Ameritech/Michigan Bell/Hand Over Your Mortgage So You Can Pay Our Bills/or whatever they wish to call themselves this year. The $5,000 is the total bill; our first bill was to the tune of $1,400 for the data services; the original design called for two bonded T1's here at...

Hi All. Sorry it's been so long for any updates. Let's just say that this entire implementation has turned into the biggest pile of crap that one could ever imagine. I don't even know where to begin. Let's start off with the absent-minded sales teams who pushed us through on this. I had...

Very true. In fact, our current fax server has 4 lines on it because...well, at one time we faxed EVERYTHING. While the cost isn't astronomical, when you consider we were faxing documents in upwards of 30 or more pages (at times), if those calls were long distance, it all added up. Almost...

Well... First off, I'm suprised this discussion went as long as it did. Alot of useful information from everyone. Thanks! The owners of my company liked the numbers they saw, and so we're signed, committed, (probably ready to bend over, too) for IP Flex. It's been interesting. Suddenly...

Merlinman... I'll stick to the theory as well. Makes total sense to me.

Merlinman... I appreciate that tip. I had read that "gotcha" somewhere else, and so it was in our plan to make sure we have POTS lines in place for remote admin. As long as we're talking analog, I also have a few devices that require dial-up connections to data centers for various updates...

I spent some time creating a custom program for SMDR. It basically sends all SMDR info to a SQL Server, then uses a web-based application to query the database. I never quite finished it, but it does the job for what we need it to do. If you're a Micro$oft shop, and running MS-SQL, it may be...

Currently our 100DCD cards on both systems are used strictly for point to point networking for Merlin, and for point-to-point data between the two offices. I like your definition of AT&T better, Jim. LOL

Gotcha...that makes a whole lot more sense to me. Almost Tried and True (er...AT&T) is proposing a bonded T1 (3Mb) for voice/data at our main location, and just a normal T1 for voice/data at our satellite office. I'm going to take a look at PRI programming; so I have my ducks in a row...

Thanks for your input, mforrence. So, we need to make sure they set it for 5ESS/ATT Custom. Got it. Luckily, these same two Sales and Tech "team" have recently sold one of our clients this exact solution. We plan on contacting them to see how/if/when it's working for them. I appreciate...

CarGoski.. No one; on the same token, no one says that I won't, either. Actually, we've pretty much settled on doing 16-18 call paths if we do decide to go with this solution. We were told to initially order 26, so that we get 2 TDM cards in the Cisco for future growth; then back the...

So, (and pardon me needing an explanation; I just want to understand how this all works) basically we'll have our "call paths" coming into the Cisco, which in turn places these calls into a B-Channel on a PRI to the merlin? I guess what I'm trying to understand is if a PRI only has 23 usable...

Interesting; maybe even a bit ironic... I've read this thread in the past, but just now realized (now that we have this upon our heads) that msi12 has (what sounds like) the same solution AT&T is proposing us - a flex T1 into a Cisco 28xx. Still wonder (in my other thread) what programming...

Hi All. We've had AT&T reps coming to us the past few weeks, proposing we move to their IP Flex service. The cost savings looks good on paper, but I'm curious as to how this is all going to work out. The AT&T tech I've spoken with says that our Incoming bonded T1 at the main location, and...

I'm going to give this a try after hours tonight. I still believe it's a csu/dsu issue, and I probably just didn't give things enough time to sync up? If someone could at least verify these steps (that they're in the right order), I'll feel a bit more confident. 1. Remove Channel 6, then...
